How easy it would be to forget all those wonderful glimmers of joy. Nature is amazing. Thank you for doing this delightful project that unites and connects an online community to each other, and nature, whilst providing faith and hope in the everyday. Beautiful.

A real sense of the season moving on in this one. Love all the references to fresh produce becoming available.

Thankyou for crafting another poem from our observations Lia. I like to think of this kind, nature loving community as being a gently radical corner of the otherwise shouty internet. X

I’m so glad I found you Lia. This community you’ve created, one that I feel part of, has made me appreciate nature - its beauty and power - so much more than I did before. Sat in bed with a cuppa listening to beautiful birdsong right now. Xxx

What a delight to read the simple shared moments of others that evoke and reflect such pleasures from our own lives too.

You have helped me to notice the individual character of what i see, especially in nature, and then try and find an interesting way of capturing this in words,

thankyou !

A much needed joy ride through the month. I’ve been spending half my time in an equatorial climate with my elderly mom. I get quite home sick for the rhythms of four seasons, here where there are just two, wet and dry. All of these heartfelt and beautifully articulated noticings keep me going. My heart is lifted. Thanks everybody. Thanks Lia for keeping it going.
